SANY expands line of compact excavators

SANY’s roster of new compact excavators uses the latest in hydraulics.


SANY Group, headquartered in Peachtree City, Georgia, unveiled four new compact excavators that broaden the product lineup. SANY now offers seven excavators that are 10 short tons or smaller.

The SY26U weighs in at 5,908 pounds. It is the smallest of the new excavators, but the company says it still offers many of the same features you expect to find on much larger machines. The SY26U comes standard with a fully enclosed cab and auxiliary hydraulics down the arm. This zero tail swing excavator provides the perfect balance between extreme accessibility and high productivity, according to SANY.

The SY50 is a bigger machine at 11,905 pounds. Designed for heavier work, it still fits into tight spaces. The pivoting boom and zero tail swing allow the SY50 to work close to walls and barriers. This machine is packed full of structural reinforcements, promoting confidence to tackle any job, says the company.

The SY60 is a 13,448-pound excavator. This machine is even larger in size, but it still includes the pivoting boom. As is typical with all SANY excavators, the SY60 has auxiliary hydraulics down the arm. This design makes scheduled maintenance more convenient with readily accessible service points and a detachable radiator screen, according to the company.

The SY95 is the new heavyweight of the SANY compact line. It weighs 20,238 pounds and comes with all the grunt of a medium sized excavator. The SANY developed control system with load sensing hydraulics that they claim uses the proper amount of engine power to ensure maximum speed and power under all operating conditions.

James Jarrell at SANY America says, “With the upcoming addition of four new utility excavator models, SANY Light Construction will deliver quality, value priced machines to meet every need in the North American market.”
